A popular Radio presenter in Ibadan, Oyo state, Oriyomi Hamzat, was on Tuesday arraigned before a Magistrates court for the alleged murder of a 17-year-old boy.

Police arrested the defendant after the body of the young man was found in his car.

27-year-old Idowu Ibrahim, 23-year-old Taiwo Olaronke, Mohammed Bashir 31, and 23-year-old Yusuff Ajisafe, were also arrested alongside Oriyomi, as they were arraigned on two counts of conspiracy and murder.

According to reports, the deceased was an orphan raised in an unregistered orphanage home, which allegedly belongs to the suspect.

The prosecutor, Sunday Fatola, told the court that Hamzat and others on July 21, 2017, at about 4am, in the Oremeji Agugu area of Ibadan, conspired together to commit murder.

He explained that the suspects unlawfully caused the death of the victim by inflicting an injury on his head and body.

The magistrate, A. A. Adebisi, ordered that the accused be remanded in the Agodi Prison pending the release of legal advice from the Directorate of Public Prosecutions.
